I found an Eddie Cochran album hidden amongst his Platters, Elvis, and Grand Ole Opry star stuff.
After that, I knew he was all right.

Trivia: The Beatles were formed because of that song
Apr 15, 2021, 1:11 PM
[ in reply to 20 Flight Rock. I don't know who the girl at the start is. ] |

The barely 15-year-old Paul McCartney used "Twenty Flight Rock" as his first song when he auditioned for John Lennon on July 6, 1957 in Liverpool, England. The 16-year-old Lennon, introduced that day to McCartney at St. Peter's Church Hall prior to a church garden fete, was impressed by his new acquaintance's ability to play the song on the guitar. The good first impression of McCartney's performance led to an invitation to join the Quarrymen—Lennon's band that would eventually evolve into the Beatles. On The Beatles Anthology, McCartney noted that: "I think what impressed him most was that I knew all the words."

I had to sit my dad down and make him listen to this. He would have been 28 at the time this was made. I was about 14, he was about 40, when I played it. He hated it. He was old before he was old.

based on age. My parents did not like any of the music I listened to, nor did I like theirs.

about 10 years younger than the people who produced it. Dad would harrumph about twanging guitars and I would think, "Dang, man, they're your age."
The only part of their music I did appreciate was the jazz. Day in and day out they listened to music I couldn't stand. Perry Como stuff. But remember the 60's cocktail parties, men in suits and women in short dresses and high heels, standing around with martinis acting sophisticated? Once in a while it would be at our house, and me and sis had to hide in the bedrooms, no coming out. That was the only time the jazz was played, and I would sometimes get those out when they weren't home.
